If you are a fan of Hip Hop, you are likely a fan of sampling. Listen to this episode to understand why sampling is so prevalent in Hip Hop... and most pop music for that matter! We had a good time talking about some of the earliest methods of sampling, including the concept of sound art within Musique Concrete - which dates back to the 1940s by the way! We also cover some of the controversies and infringement that may have occurred as a result of early samples. We had fun with this one, so please enjoy!
